Tonight I made my roasted lemon and herb chicken for my family. It was one of Matt's favorite meals.
It was tougher than I had thought it would be, sitting down to eat something he liked so much. But it was therapeutic as well.
We got to laughing over one memory in particular. The first time I made the chicken for him, he was so enamored with the crispy skin that he kept burning his fingers trying to pick pieces of it off.
My daughter requested we make another of his favorite meals next week. So hopefully we can do some more remembering and laughing over a home-cooked meal soon.

That's great Natasha. I'm glad what initially felt like something that was painful led to funny memories. You're daughter is going to have more great advice for you. :)
